I thought it was gonna be like German where you simply have to know every singe word’s gender, with no way of really finding out if it’s a new word

I’m so happy. I’ve tried to understand this topic many times but couldn’t get it until I watched this video, finally it clicked thanks to your easy and understandable explanation. Thank you!

Interestingly in Serbian there are different endings for past tense verbs for plural depending on gender of the plural too, so 6 combinations. Привет из Сербии

Каждый раз думаю о том, что, будь я иностранцем, не стал бы изучать русский. Как же это чертовски сложно... Хотя у меня вполне хорошие оценки в школе, но я даже не представляю, как бы я это понимал, будь я носителем другого языка. Восхищаюсь людьми, которые решили учить его как иностранный. Вы уже герои по умолчанию. good luck

i really need a full conjugation tutorial like for EVERYTHING no exceptions. i dont care if the vid is 3h long plssss

[@lowgpu1687]

The problem is that there are so many words with different endings. And even if the ending is similar to another, it may not be the same idea. Take the word "сказать". If you follow that pattern of adding "ю" in place of "ть", it would be "сказаю", right? (I'm pretty sure this isn't a real word), Well, not really, it's actually "скажу", and that's what makes it harder to make a conjugation video, it'd have to be a really lengthy video.

[@user-le5rs5vv6i]

​@@lowgpu1687your example of "сказать" is not right. This is a perfective form of verb говорить and will have its' own conjugation.

[@shpliey88]

If I wished to ask a woman either how her father or how her mother is, would I construct the sentence as, > or because the direction of the question is going to a female, thus I conjugate the word "your" to the feminine personal pronoun? I completely understood what you meant when you covered the male format and examples, I just required a bit further insight into this particular avenue of speaking to someone of either the same or opposite sex. Большое пасибо фёдор!!😊

[@МихаилШудейко-ы2ж]

THE word "папа" is masculine because "папа" is a male person so you should ask:"Как твой папа?"

[@taktika4764]

Question,whats the difference between телефон и трубка?спасибо 😊

[@BeFluentinRussian]

Трубка is a slang for a "phone", while телефон is a dictionary term for a "phone".

[@bshthrasher]

Телефон refers to the actual telephone set, while трубка or труба refers to that part that you actually bring to your ear, as it was in the old times when these two parts were separate and connected with a wire. Nowadays we use any of those depending on a situation and also another slang word for mobile phones - мобила.

[@Powerful-j2n]

Is there a difference between the pronunciation of the endings - ла and - ло for past tense ?

[@Frosy_offical]

Разница существует -ла это женский род, а -ло это средний род (относится к неживым объектам)

[@Powerful-j2n]

@@Frosy_offical yes I know but I mean the way how you spell it I mean the sound they both sound for me like la or is there a subtle difference I don't realize ?

[@Frosy_offical]

​@@Powerful-j2nIn the sense, do you only hear -ла? I recommend watching the video with words ending on -ла -ло (best with subtitles)

[@guiltypleasureenjoyer-cp4it]

​@@Powerful-j2n According to Wiktionary -ла and -ло do have the same pronunciation of /ə/ (schwa) sound. I might be wrong, but I think I say it slightly differently: -ло is indeed a schwa sound, while -ла is more like a /ʌ/ one. I'm from Udmurtia, Ural region of Russia, so, again, it could be a regional thing.

[@markpepito8826]

What about кофе is masculine

[@sevenssymbols]

technically it's allowed to be either masculine or neuter- masculine is the older one (the word used to be "кофий") and is sort of kept as a relic, and some people will insist that it's the only correct form. with the modern word though, many people regularize it to neuter because of its ending -e. I'm not sure which is more common though..

[@naughtyrocks2425]

When to use pachemu at sachem?

[@bshthrasher]

Basically Zachem means "For what purpose", while Pochemu simply means "Why". You can use Zachem only when you ask about the reasoning of mind of living beings, mostly humans, but sometimes animals too. Zachem ti kupil stol'ko yablok? - Why did you buy so many apples? Zachem koshka lizhet kotyat? - Why does the cat lick the kittens? If the object is inanimate, you can only use Pochemu. Pochemu nebo goluboe? - Why is the sky blue? Pochemu sneg takoi holodniy? - Why is the snow so cold? You can use Pochemu instead of Zachem, but not the other way around, because inanimate objects don't have any thoughts or reasoning. Here's a tricky example: Zachem takoi bolshoy dom? - For what purpose is this house so big? We use inanimate object but in fact we ask about a person, not the object. So full version of the sentence would be - Zachem (tebe) takoi bolshoi dom? - where tebe is implied.

He said ending with "a" is feminine, "e" is neutral. But then in the last example, he says, "два" is masculine, and "две" is feminine. All those statements contradict themselves. Could somebody please explain to me please 🫣🙏🙏🙏

[@moroneverfold]

"Два and Две" it 's kinda goes to plural. In basic words (nor plural) usually it works well See the noun which ends on consonant, it's very likely masculine. ананас(pineapple), персик(peach), дом(house), робот(robot), шкаф(wardrobe) all of these are masculine. and I write first which came up in my head. голова(head), лодка(boat) , сосиска(sausage) , картина(painting), редиска, такса, подушка, рыба(fish), тетрадка, гора(mountain) , работа(job/work)- all of these are feminine. море(sea), горе, солнце, окно(window), кино(movie), пальто(coat), all of these are neutral (in Russia we call it средний literally means mediocre ) And other words like verbs adjective they usually mimic nouns for adjectives feminine - endings would be -ая, (both vowels underline the feminine ) masculine - endings would be - ый(consonant and kinda scary vowel "ы") neutral - endings would be - ое (both vowels underline neutral , you know that nouns which ens on either of those is close to 100% neutral)
